I have a Oracle 8.0 database running on a Digital Alpha NT 4.0 Server with
service pack 3.
Due to some reason (not related with Oracle 8 database), I will have to have
reinstall the NT 4.0 and sp 3 again. I was told that I can do so after
shutting down the Oracle 8 database and there will be no impact on
the Oracle database. I have a doubt that reinstalling the NT 4.0 will
overwrite the registry and it will create some problem for the Oracle
database. One option is to export the registry and import the registry after
reinstalling the NT 4.0. I have no experience in doing such thing. I would
appreciate, if you can share you experiences & give your suggestion. I want
to avoid reinstalling the Oracle 8 again after reinstalling NT 4.0 since
the Oracle database size is about 15 GB and it will be tedious and time
consuming. But I have no choice and I have to reinstall the NT 4.0 .
Thanks in advance.
